Mother and daughter

I feel like I'm finally a grandma if only by proxy!

I am one of her otha' mothers - she and my daughter were best friends in kindergarten and 1st grade(they were born on consecutive days in June) until SIobhan's family moved across the country - w/ in 10 miles I think of my family in PA - we've managed to stay in touch & even have the odd visit or two =

her mother passed away several years ago - my family went to the service back east and I and another of the kindergarten mom's attended an Irish wake hosted by Geraldine's first husband on the West Coast - the Irish in us calls to each other -

admitted lying to make  a point - it's still a lie and still wrong and ugly - she's been warned to never contact me again - and has been blocked & deleted wherever I can block & delete her - and this is someone who went to some bible college & considers herself a Christian - yeah right -
moral - the end(s) never ever justify the means because  there is no end  - not really

Microwave turned itself on this am when I walked by it - had to unplug it to turn it off -

Old high school friend has deleted his profile or someone has - which may mean he's out of the hospital and determined to kill himself or just pissed at me for my intervention efforts - might be time to contact folks in my former place of residence in SC - or not -

One party is using a  second party to lie to a 3rd party to upset 3rd party - maybe - 2nd party says 1st party is lying and thinks 3rd party shouldn't be upset by 1st party - 3rd party's fault if 3rd party is upset by 1st party - 2nd party apparently doesn't mind being used in such a fashion or 1st party isn't lying and 2nd party is - and does anyone really care?

And in better news - two different parties who were negatively impacted by aforementioned 2nd party  are back on track -

one can only do so much and must remind oneself one is not responsible for the actions of others & cannot save everybody if indeed anyone is saved from themselves -

ok I did something right for a change - the police went to his house - he was there and denied everything - so they called me for a bit more info - I even had to look in my old high school annual to see what year he graduated - they called back again - he admitted it was him and they took him to the hospital - way too much drama for one day or even a few days -

a reason I had to blow off the camping -

 would you believe a former classmate of mine from South Caroline who just recently found me on Classmates.com told me he was going to kill himself tonight - so I did an internet search and hopefully found him and when his phone was disconnected I called the police in that town and they went out to see if they could find him and stop him - so I'm waiting for them  to cal me back -  gaahhh!!

was in to much pain from all the housework I did - and still had a it of internet access which only caused more pain - so home w/ headache and nausea to boot - appears I can't do anything right -

out until further notice - will check in when I can -

I was just informed of the death of a dear friend - we never met - email, phone conversations - his love, Donna, emailed me to let me know Charles  passed away yesterday from a heart attack.

We three had plans to meet - maybe in another life  or on the other side  -

 I am in tears
